How could they hate this beauty? They have never seen the color of your eyes, illuminated by the sun, Never felt your breath, soft against my neck They do not know the sweet taste of your kiss Have not heard the melody of your words They try to take away what they don’t understand What they can’t have. How could they hate this beauty?

This Beauty
A Galilean has met the cross His followers, all hope is lost A crucifix, stuck in the mud The ground beneath: soaked with blood. The King of Jews, the cross it reads The Romans laugh while he breaths Forgive them Father, out he calls And when he dies the temple falls. His body hangs from the tree And with his life he pays the fee Of those who walk in evil's path So they shan't feel Satan's wrath. Another man from Bethany Sings a separate melody Although he finds his own tree He swings from it far from free. This man's greed bought him in Forever known in history's sin His death had paid no holy price Nor did it win him paradise Judas was this man's name The silver coins won his fame And while the Lord rises soon Judas meets a lonely tomb.

A Friday
The car silently speeds down the dark road Eyes. It seems like thousands Suddenly they blink in the path The car swirls like a hurricane Finding its way to the shoulder Then it is all silent again Snow gently falls on broken glass The eyes are now unblinking Only there’s two now They lay open on the cold asphalt The ground smeared with blood What have you done? Could you not step away from it? Could you not stop yourself? You drag the deer to the side of the road You want to cover your ears as the antlers scrape the ground A horrible noise. What have you done? How could you have not seen it? How could you have not known? It did nothing to you.
